of_o evil_a doer_n they_o may_v be_v ashamed_a which_o slander_n your_o good_a conversation_n in_o christ_n for_o it_o be_v better_a if_o the_o will_n of_o god_n be_v so_o that_o you_o suffer_v for_o

his_o time_n have_v unbelieve_v housebande_n and_o again_o of_o such_o faithful_a housebande_n as_o yet_o have_v heathen_a and_o ethnic_a wife_n for_o it_o oftentimes_o happen_v in_o those_o day_n that_o the_o apostle_n preach_v the_o gospel_n among_o unbelieve_a pagan_n and_o infidel_n among_o who_o it_o be_v often_o see_v that_o the_o one_o of_o the_o party_n to_o wit_n either_o the_o

behave_v themselves_o in_o manner_n and_o conversation_n that_o even_o thereby_o they_o may_v allure_v and_o draw_v their_o housebande_n unto_o faith_n we_o read_v that_o the_o virtuous_a matron_n monica_n mother_n unto_o saint_n augustine_n convert_v her_o houseband_n a_o little_a afore_o his_o death_n unto_o the_o faith_n of_o christ_n and_o after_o that_o her_o son_n augustine_n also_o but_o we_o must_v note_v that_o this_o be_v a_o external_a office_n and_o outward_a charge_n not_o to_o be_v do_z of_o any_o woman_n with_o intent_n thereby_o to_o be_v justify_v for_o by_o all_o this_o

to_o their_o housebande_n but_o that_o obedience_n of_o they_o reach_v no_o far_a than_o to_o content_v serve_v and_o please_v their_o housebande_n for_o so_o do_v god_n ordain_v and_o appoincte_n

woman_n have_v here_o great_a cause_n to_o rejoice_v in_o that_o they_o know_v what_o work_v to_o do_v to_o please_v god_n withal_o for_o this_o be_v such_o a_o great_a treasure_n as_o a_o wife_n

and_o therefore_o she_o that_o be_v desirous_a to_o be_v a_o right_a christian_a wise_n let_v she_o thus_o think_v with_o herself_o i_o will_v not_o respect_v what_o manner_n of_o person_n my_o

he_o shall_v be_v sure_a to_o beat_v in_o two_o as_o bad_a or_o worse_o as_o in_o our_o common_a proverb_n we_o be_v wont_v to_o say_v o_o that_o wife_n through_o know_v this_o doctrine_n and_o exhortation_n of_o saint_n peter_n how_o happy_o and_o bless_o shall_v they_o live_v but_o our_o perverse_a and_o crooked_a nature_n be_v such_o that_o what_o god_n command_v none_o be_v willing_a to_o follow_v but_o what_o mannes_z idle_a brain_n devise_v after_o that_o man_n run_v headlong_o furthermore_o god_n have_v will_v this_o commandment_n of_o wife_n obedient_a subjection_n to_o their_o husband_n to_o be_v so_o firm_o and_o inviolablie_o observe_v that_o he_o have_v grant_v power_n and_o authority_n to_o the_o housebande_n to_o dissolve_v undo_v disallow_v and_o to_o make_v

apostle_n set_v down_o how_o a_o wife_n ought_v to_o behave_v herself_o towards_o all_o other_o who_o apparail_v let_v it_o not_o be_v outward_a as_o with_o braid_a hair_n and_o gold_n put_v about_o

by_o this_o treasure_n and_o inward_a garnishement_n we_o may_v not_o think_v here_o to_o be_v command_v and_o prescribe_v only_o for_o wife_n but_o the_o same_o stretch_v &_o aught_o to_o be_v construe_v as_o mean_v also_o of_o men._n here_o may_v some_o ask_v this_o question_n whether_o these_o saying_n of_o saint_n peter_n concern_v woman_n apparel_n be_v straight_o command_v or_o no_o we_o read_v of_o queen_n esther_n how_o that_o she_o wear_v a_o crown_n of_o gold_n on_o her_o head_n and_o put_v on_o her_o royal_a apparel_n that_o be_v very_o rich_a precious_a and_o meet_v for_o a_o queen_n esth_n ij_o and_o u_o judith_n also_o apparel_v herself_o most_o brave_o and_o magnificent_o jud._n x._o but_o in_o both_o place_n we_o find_v it_o thus_o explain_v that_o they_o do_v it_o not_o for_o any_o vain_a delight_n that_o they_o have_v therein_o
lie_v naked_a to_o the_o sight_n of_o god_n and_o be_v as_o now_o present_a unto_o his_o eye_n and_o he_o in_o one_o moment_n or_o minute_n of_o time_n overlook_v and_o surueigh_v all_o that_o be_v be_v or_o be_v a_o thousand_o year_n with_o he_o be_v but_o as_o one_o day_n as_o saint_n peter_n in_o his_o second_o epistle_n declare_v and_o therefore_o the_o first_o man_n be_v as_o present_v unto_o he_o as_o the_o man_n that_o be_v last_a bear_v for_o with_o one_o glance_n he_o behold_v at_o once_o the_o whole_a world_n let_v this_o therefore_o be_v the_o meaning_n of_o this_o place_n that_o christ_n now_o preach_v not_o any_o more_o corporal_o but_o be_v present_a in_o his_o word_n and_o thereby_o preach_v to_o the_o spirit_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o here_o we_o must_v note_v that_o saint_n peter_n use_v a_o figure_n name_v synecdoche_n which_o be_v when_o the_o whole_a be_v take_v for_o a_o part_n and_o contrariwise_o when_o the_o part_n be_v take_v for_o the_o whole_a for_o he_o preach_v not_o altogether_o unto_o they_o alone_o but_o unto_o all_o that_o be_v like_a unto_o they_o and_o of_o semblable_a disposition_n to_o they_o as_o if_o a_o man_n for_o example_n sake_n shall_v now_o say_v this_o man_n preach_v among_o the_o heluetian_o who_o sometime_o be_v under_o the_o government_n of_o the_o duke_n of_o austria_n it_o hereuppon_o by_o and_o by_o follow_v not_o that_o he_o preach_v to_o they_o that_o sometime_o be_v vassal_n to_o the_o duke_n of_o austria_n and_o be_v now_o long_o since_o dead_a but_o it_o suffice_v to_o say_v that_o he_o preach_v to_o the_o people_n dwell_v now_o in_o that_o country_n which_o afore_o live_v in_o such_o subjection_n and_o thus_o under_o the_o name_n of_o the_o part_n the_o whole_a be_v many_o time_n understand_v and_o the_o whole_a again_o oftentimes_o be_v put_v to_o signify_v the_o parte_fw-la and_o after_o this_o sort_n must_v we_o by_o this_o life_n have_v respect_n and_o consideration_n of_o the_o other_o life_n this_o be_v the_o best_a interpretation_n in_o my_o judgement_n that_o can_v be_v for_o this_o place_n howbeit_o if_o any_o man_n bring_v a_o better_a i_o will_v be_v glad_a as_o meet_v it_o be_v to_o allow_v of_o it_o but_o to_o be_v plain_a i_o can_v not_o at_o any_o hand_n be_v persuade_v to_o believe_v that_o christ_n be_v quicken_v in_o spirit_n that_o be_v have_v now_o take_v unto_o he_o a_o spiritual_a life_n do_v descend_v into_o helle_n and_o preach_v to_o the_o soul_n there_o special_o see_v the_o scripture_n be_v flat_a against_o any_o such_o matter_n affirm_v that_o when_o thing_n be_v bring_v to_o that_o point_n every_o one_o shall_v receive_v accordyng_o as_o he_o have_v do_v and_o believe_v again_o it_o be_v not_o certain_a in_o what_o state_n the_o dead_a remain_n to_o conclude_v the_o word_n themselves_o be_v against_o any_o such_o meaning_n for_o the_o dead_a now_o this_o be_v undoubted_o true_a that_o christ_n be_v present_a and_o preach_v in_o the_o heart_n when_o as_o the_o faithful_a minister_n or_o vocal_a preacher_n with_o fruit_n utter_v and_o instil_v the_o word_n of_o god_n into_o the_o ear_n and_o therefore_o we_o may_v bold_o and_o without_o danger_n admit_v and_o embrace_v this_o interpretation_n of_o this_o place_n he_o to_o who_o god_n have_v reveil_v and_o open_v a_o better_a exposition_n i_o wish_v to_o be_v follow_v the_o very_a sum_n therefore_o of_o this_o our_o interpretation_n be_v this_o christ_n be_v now_o quicken_v in_o spirit_n that_o be_v after_o he_o be_v ascend_v into_o heaven_n preach_v afterward_o unto_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n who_o afore_o use_v to_o preach_v to_o their_o body_n among_o which_o soul_n there_o be_v many_o vnbelever_n in_o the_o day_n of_o noah_n when_o once_o the_o long_o suffer_v of_o god_n abode_n in_o the_o day_n of_o noah_n while_o the_o ark_n be_v prepare_v where_o in_o few_o that_o be_v eight_o soul_n be_v save_v in_o the_o water_n here_o again_o persi_v saint_n peter_n in_o allege_v and_o insert_v the_o scripture_n in_o which_o his_o purpose_n be_v to_o draw_v we_o to_o enure_v and_o exercise_v ourselves_o and_o out_o of_o they_o he_o bring_v the_o figure_n of_o

the_o ark_n of_o noah_n whereby_o he_o brief_o and_o in_o few_o word_n and_o yet_o with_o a_o certain_a pleasure_n set_v down_o a_o sure_a lesson_n to_o confirm_v faith_n and_o that_o which_o he_o here_o set_v down_o to_o have_v come_v to_o pass_v when_o noah_n make_v the_o ark_n after_o the_o same_o sort_n stand_v the_o case_n now_o that_o as_o he_o and_o he_o even_o eight_o soul_n be_v save_v

and_o so_o baptism_n be_v receive_v in_o faith_n droun_v in_o we_o whatsoever_o be_v carnal_a and_o natural_a and_o make_v we_o spiritual_a and_o this_o come_v to_o pass_v when_o we_o betake_v
